This is a limited edition lithograph of a bar tender mixing a 'Singapore Sling'. Its composition is what the artist Guy Buffet calls a 'Cinematic', with each box in the image appearing like a frame from a film. The composed bar tender furiously shakes the cocktail shaker such that he is depicted in a blur, anda finally returns to his composed self in the final box. The lion and woman in the background are pictured with glasses of the Singapore Sling in their hands in the final box.
